Continuity mistake: When Dopey comes into Snow White's room alone, there is a pot on a shelf next to the door. The next time anyone comes in the door is when the dwarves all come together, and in that scene the pot is gone.
Continuity mistake: When Doc makes Dopey go up the stairs to investigate, he hands him the candlestick and Dopey grabs the side opposite the handle. In the next shot he's holding it with his thumb through the handle.
Continuity mistake: During "Whistle While You Work," while the birds are arranging flowers in a pot, an extra flower suddenly appears out of nowhere.
Continuity mistake: When the dwarf's first come to their cottage, Dopey slams the door shut. A little later, when they all run out, the door is wide open.
Continuity mistake: When the dwarfs are coming home for the first time and they all smash into each other because Doc notices the lights are lit, he is holding the lamp and then it swings behind him and disappears for the rest of the scene.
Continuity mistake: The Dwarfs' cottage has a window beside the front door which has a line of circles at the top and an irregular geometric pattern below, but when the animals hear the Dwarfs singing "Heigh-Ho" they rush downstairs, and as they pass that window it now has all circles.
Continuity mistake: When the queen comes down to her secret lab to transform herself and to make the poisoned apple, we see a crow perched on a skull. Throughout the scenes in the lab, the skull sometimes has an opening on the top and sometimes doesn't.

Continuity mistake: When Snow White runs away from the prince and sneaks behind a red curtain, flowers suddenly appear on the branches on the left.
Continuity mistake: When Dopey sees Snow White for the first time, he runs away in fear and drops the candle while doing so. Later in the film, when all seven dwarves come into her room at once, the candle can not be seen on the floor.
Continuity mistake: When the dwarfs pull the covers off of Snow White, her left arm touches her head, but in the closeup of Snow White sleeping, her arm is not touching her head.
